Pendrin malfunction may cause a genetic disease called Pendred syndrome or non-syndromic deafness. The book provides a thorough description of the multifaceted role of pendrin in human health and disease. As such, it offers an invaluable tool for physiology and pathology researchers, while also providing essential guidance for otorhinolaryngologists and endocrinologists in the diagnosis of Pendred syndrome and pendrin-related deafness. 606 $aMolecular biology 606 $aOtolaryngology 606 $aEndocrinology 606 $aHuman genetics 606 $aMolecular Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B1700X 606 $aOtorhinolaryngology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H46007 606 $aEndocrinology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33053 606 $aHuman Genetics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12008 615 0$aMolecular biology. 615 0$aOtolaryngology. 615 0$aEndocrinology. 615 0$aHuman genetics. 615 14$aMolecular Medicine. 615 24$aOtorhinolaryngology. 615 24$aEndocrinology. 615 24$aHuman Genetics. 676 $a611.01816 702 $aDossena$b Silvia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPaulmichl$b Markus$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253909703321 996 $aThe Role of Pendrin in Health and Disease$91993955 997 $aUNINA
